I think that is sooo cool also.  Definitely not a spectator sport....

This would work brilliantly in the desert and you could watch it all
from a blimp if the riders wear bright colours. I adore the visual
concept.

Take a look at this sled dog race site
http://can-am.sjv.net/WebRace/CACFRAME.HTM

At the top, click on the minus sign to the left of the "2007" to go to the
page for the 2006 race.   Then click the link that says "TRACK."

You'll see a map showing the race trail, a clock running in the upper part 
of
the screen, and a bunch of little yellow squares following the trail.  Click
on one of the squares to get info about that musher.    This page works in
"real time" during the race, with the little yellow squares moving a LOT
slower,  so we can check on everyone's progress while it's happening. 
Under
the clock there's an "instructions" button so you can see what things you 
can
do to see info on the page.

 I don't know how they do it -  Authors' names are at the bottom of the 
page.
Is there anything set up like this for endurance rides?   I'd love to see 
it!
